IShowSpeed has challenged an NFL star to a $100k race after being called out following his contest with Olympic champion Noah Lyles.
Lyles, who won gold at the 2024 Paris Games, narrowly beat Speed in a race contested over 50m.
The social media star actually led for part of the sprint before the track phenom pulled ahead in the final stretch.
And it appears another race could be on the cards following his stunt with Lyles.
That's because Miami Dolphins' Tyreek Hill has called out Speed to a race.

"The thing about racing Speed is like, bro, you gave Noah Lyles a chance to win 100k, bro. Give that same chance," Hill said on Twitch.
"Because I already know I’m faster than you, bro. It’s like, why waste my time? I got a lot of respect for what you’re trying to do, all the attention you’re trying to grab. And I’m just like, bro, you are not faster than me, kid. We can bet any amount you want to bet. I’ll race that boy for 100k if he donates to my foundation."

Well, Speed has fired back and laid down the gauntlet to the wide receiver.
"I’m tired of hearing your sh*t. I pulled up to your practice last time. You didn’t wanna race me ‘cause you were scared," he said, referencing the time he turned up at the Dolphins' training facilities to race Hill.

The viral sensation then raised the stakes by suggesting a 40-yard sprint for £100,000, promising to donate the money to Hill's charity as requested.
But Speed added his own stipulation for the race, saying: "If I win, you donate to my charity or give it to one of my supporters."
